With Fiji pooled with Japan, Wales and Australia, do they have a chance of making the quarter finals?

It's a tough group. You can bet that Australia will play a lot better than they have been of late and will be a different team come September. And you can never write off Wales in an open game. Remember the last world cup?? It will be very tough for Fiji to make it out of this group but if they can put together a side that plays with the same speed and power that their seven's side plays with they will have a chance.

Being Welsh, I'd have to say I hope not! But seriously, I think Fiji would have to beat both Wales and Canada to qualify (assuming they lost to Australia), which seems unlikely.

Australia will finish first and Wales second. So Fiji will not quite make it.

Yes. A chance. Good luck. Australia will win the group. I`d love to see you put Wales out.

Which world cup? Shurely not Rugby Union!!!!!!!
Are you serious - Australia will kill them! Wales will beat them.
Now here is my wish, I hope they do, but it would be a miracle.
GO FIJI - - - -

What? You think Canada's presence in group B doesn't merit a mention? Take a look at the world rankings.

Except for Australia, any of the other four teams could finish anwhere from second to last.

I am Welsh and the way we are playing you could definitely beat us, and if you do you will surly take second. Keep an eye on the improving Canadians though.
